Invitations

Well, I finally have my invitations almost done. This is a HUGE task! I wasn't nearly as prepared for this undertaking as I thought.

We sent out save the dates a few months back so I have a list of addresses already. However, everyone keeps moving! Can't people just stay put until after our wedding :) ?

Our invitation vendor is AMAZING! Her name is Sandy Wang from Koket Design. I found her on the Wedding Planner's Alumni website and then saw her featured in a wedding magazine. My fiance and I were looking for something 'travel' related and the article featured her passport style invitations. Exactly what I was looking for.

As Sandy is just starting out her prices are unbelievable. Her talent is incredible. It's like she can see in my head exactly what I am looking for. Everytime she sent us samples they were perfect!!!

We sent out over 200 save the dates in the style of a luggage tag and our guests loved them!

We have now finalized our passport invitation in both Italian and English and I can't wait to see them! They should be in my hands in the next few days and then I have the daunting task of addressing them...and getting them back in the mail when I find out someone has moved!

Long Weekend Weddings

It's been a few weeks since I've blogged...but I wanted to share with you the weddings that happened this past weekend.

Rachel and Darren's wedding took place on Saturday and was absolutely stunning! Everyone, including the staff, was completely in awe when they walked in to the room. From a backdrop, to napkin holders, to bling on the chair covers, to charger plates, Rachel thought of everything and it really made the room sparkle! The weather didn't cooperate for the ceremony but it was still beautiful inside the tent. Guests then enjoyed cocktails while the bride and groom took a few photos and then mingled. The reception was hit from the beef and chicken combo plate to the sweet table!

After a quick re-set on Sunday morning we were ready for another wedding completely different from the night before!
Kristen and Murray's guests enjoyed a cocktail reception in the tent and on the patio and mingled with the bride and groom.
Guests enjoyed a choice meal of either beef tenderloin or salmon and a platter of desserts. The bride and groom danced into the wee hours!

Guests enjoyed a taste of the bride and groom's favourite sweets at the candy bar buffet with the options to take some in home in adorable red take out boxes.
